A group of MIT students decided to test the performance of different tinfoil beanies to see how various designs (the "classical," "fez" and "centurion") interacted with commonly used industrial radio applications. They found that all three designs actually amplified these [strikethrough]mind control[/strikethrough] rays radio waves, suggesting that the tinfoil hat meme might be a false-flag operation engineered to trick the wily and suspicious into making it easier to beam messages into their skulls.
More about the testing they did in the link. Just thought you should be warned whenever you think you are onto something DON'T put on your tinfoil hat or else THEY WILL KNOW. Or is this test a conspiracy to stop you from putting on your mind-reading-protecting-cap? Plus the fact you can't even buy tinfiol these days and like the test it is aluminum...oh fack...they replaced all the tinfoil in the world so you have to use aluminum which allows them to read your head better...MIND BLOWN.
















Do not take my comments seriously...seriously.

Oh you think it's all about reading minds?

Don't be silly, the Trans-galactic agreement of 20302 expressly forbids mind reading via electromagnetic waves.

While, over the past 1000 years, the Reptilians have been found to be in violation of various terms of the Trans-Galactic agreement...They have never been found in violation of the mind-reading provisions.

No, this is strictly terrestrial, and the US government does not yet have mind reading/control/IBINB technology. This is much more simplistic, the government simply wants you to wear the hats so the death ray can be focused into your brain to erase ideas/thoughts/memories.

Typically, they do this with chemicals (read: contrails, etc) but have more recently opted for the tried and true method: Laser-induced amnesia.

Look for reports of alien abductions and other "missing time" events to increase linearly with tinfoil sales.

I wonder if that's the reason why you can't put your tinfoil hat in the microwave (for winter use)

Do the Klingon speakers among us have a reply to this rather bold statement on the part of these MIT grad students?

Poppycock. The test was done using aluminum foil, not tinfoil.

Perhaps putting on the aluminum hats instead of tinfoil hats is another trick so that they can read our minds better OR cook our brains faster using unseen microwaves in the air!
